A female band in Russia chooses an English language
name that is provocative and attends a Christian church to interrupt the
worship with a profane political song.
A hate filled man enters a Sikh temple and shoots people at
random.
A black Christian church is burned by racist white men.
A mosque is bombed by a different sect of the same religion.
Desecration of houses of worship has been going on for
thousands of years all over the world. It is a way of expressing hatred for the
different and trying to exert some control over others. We can not stop people
from hatred and anger toward others and it is a problem world wide.
I feel that any house of worship no matter what religion
should be respected and should be a safe place for those who worship there. In America we are
guaranteed freedom of religion and we have almost all the worlds religions
represented here. I pledge my self to respect all houses of
worship! Are you willing to make that same pledge?
